"Sex, Bugs, and UFOs," the debut novel from new author Warren A. Shepherd, is a delicious romp through the author's imagination. The story is solid, characters are believable, and there are some genuinely emotional moments. All of this is wrapped up in a delightful blanket of self-deprecating British-style humor, giving the book a definite Douglas Adams/Terry Pratchett vibe, which fans of those authors will absolutely love. All-in-all, a first-class entry, and an author who's very much one to watch. I await the sequel eagerly!
